Click here for letter from Fr. Richard regarding the closing of StVdP school

As many of you are already aware our parish school will close at the end of this academic year. The decision comes after much prayer and careful reflection. The low enrollment for next year would not create a strong educational environment and the financial strain would be too great for the parish to bear.

A formal request was made to Bishop Serratelli for permission to close the school. The Bishop gave that permission, his support and understanding. This was then shared first with the faculty and then with the families of our school.

This is a very difficult time. It is also an important time to recognize the dedication of our faculty and staff, the efforts and sacrifices of many parents, our generous benefactors, and others who did all they could for the good of the school over many years.

The mission of St. Vincent de Paul Catholic School is to offer a system of education committed to developing each person involved spiritually, academically and morally so that each can become the best possible version of themselves to the glory of God.

As sad as this moment is, I pray that we have carried out that mission to the best of our ability for as long as we could. Please keep the faculty, staff and students in your prayers during this time.
